Chapter 352: Dante, the Pilgrim from the Other Shore
"Is this brat...really the Osiris rookie I defeated earlier? Or has my skill level regressed so much in just one day that I'm now on par with him?"
The more Ling Wei looked at Zhang Ji, the more he felt something was wrong. He felt that he was completely different from before, but he couldn't tell exactly what the difference was.
"But no matter what, the winner of this duel must be me." Ling Wei silently glanced at the two younger brothers who were recording the video. "Even if we can't completely end this round, I still maintain absolute dominance in the current situation."
At this moment, there are no other cards on Zhang Ji's field except the [Jobham Armored Dragon] with 0 attack power. After this round is over, its immortality and special ability to reduce combat damage by half will all disappear.
Even if Zhang Ji changes [Jobam Armored Dragon] to defense position, it can only block one attack, which is of no use at all. Ling Wei has two monsters on the field. Even if he does nothing, Ling Wei is able to easily break Zhang Ji's defense line.
Even if Ling Wei wanted to, he could use the effect of [Cursed Eye King_Zerakel] to destroy Zhang Ji's monster in advance, and would not let [Jobham Armored Dragon] survive until his turn.
The only variable now is Zhang Ji’s two hand cards, plus the card draw in the next round, a total of three hand cards.
Considering that Zhang Ji's deck contains a super powerful card like [Dark Demon Lord], even if he is given three more cards in his hand, it may not be converted into combat power. Moreover, there is the interference effect of the King of Cursed Eyes. With Zhang Ji's ridiculous strength, it is difficult to break through the obstacles and create a climate.
Even if Zhang Ji is really possessed by a god, Ling Wei is confident that he is invincible. With the existence of the field magic card, [Cursed Eye Threshold - City of Illusion -], as long as the "Cursed Eye of the Moon" remains in effect, when his "Cursed Eye" monster is attacked, the battle damage incurred by himself in that battle will also be borne by the opponent.
Therefore, no matter whether it goes horizontally or vertically, the worst result for Ling Wei is a draw.
Although it would be hard to say that I ended up in a draw with Osiris Red, at least I still had some dignity left, which is a hundred times better than losing to this guy. If that old guy Yin Jun insisted on demoting himself to Osiris Red, he would have a reason to be stubborn.
Thinking of this, Ling Wei unconsciously straightened his back and cleared his throat, saying, "My turn is over."
Let this farce end quickly.
"Hmph, you just said it's the end of the turn, right?" Virgil raised his lips slightly, his fingers gracefully stroking the deck. "Then, it's my turn, draw a card!"
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny?" Ling Wei was unsure, and could only use questions to reassure himself: "Do you have a way to break through the current situation? It's simply impossible."
"Because of a temporary gift from God, you lose yourself, become complacent and look down on others. No matter how many years pass, the shortcomings of mortals will not change in the slightest." Virgil said lightly.
My turn begins! First, I will sacrifice the monster on the field, [Chobham Armored Dragon], and release it to summon a monster. Come out! [Magic Emperor Angmar] (Dark/★6/Demon/Effect/2400/1000)
"A high-level summon? A monster with 2400 attack power?" Ling Wei curled his lips. "My [Cursed Eye's Familiar_Basilicok] has an attack power of 2500, and [Cursed Eye's King_Zerakel] has a whopping 3100. What a lousy Demon Emperor! He's not even worthy of being destroyed by the Cursed Eye's King's effects. Ridiculous!"
When [Magic Emperor Angmar] is successfully Advanced Summoned, this effect activates! You can banish 1 Spell Card from your Graveyard, then add a card with the same name as the banished Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.
I choose to banish the Normal Magic Card, [Calling the Stars], from the Graveyard, add the second [Calling the Stars] from the Deck to my hand, and activate it directly!
By returning the 6-star monster [Magic Emperor Angmar] on the field to the bottom of the deck, I draw two cards!"
"What? You actually discarded a Super Summoned monster to draw a card? Do you know that there are no monsters on the field now, and you have already used up your only chance to Normal Summon?"
"What does this even mean?" Virgil casually drew two more cards, "Next, I activate the effect of the Ritual Magic Card in the Graveyard, [Beyond Good and Evil].
During your Main Phase, you can banish this card from your Graveyard, then send 1 "Hypo" monster from your hand to the Graveyard. This effect cannot be activated during the turn this card was sent to the Graveyard.
I choose to discard a monster from my hand, [Glafia Card of the Other Shore], and add a Normal Spell Card, [Traveler's Knot of the Other Shore] from my deck to my hand.
At the same time, when "Graviacane, the Devil of the Other Shore" is sent to the Graveyard, the effect activates! I can Special Summon 1 "Other Shore" monster from my Deck, except for a card with the same name.
I choose to Special Summon the monster from my deck, [Evil Devil of the Other Shore_Rubikantai] (Dark/★3/Demon-Type/Adjustment/Effect/100/2100)."
"Tune the monster...are you going to perform a Synchro Summon?"
"No, I'm going to activate a Normal Spell Card, [Traveler's Knot: The Other Shore]. With this card, I can send the Fusion Material Monster determined by the "The Other Shore" Fusion Monster Card from my hand or field to the Graveyard, and Fusion Summon that Fusion Monster from my Extra Deck."
"What? Fusion Summon?"
Luo Yexi said, "Brother Ji, when did you learn how to fusion summon? I've taught you many times before, but your pig brain just can't learn it."
"The summoning conditions are: 3 "Other Side" monsters with different card names. I fuse the monsters on the field, [Other Side's Devil_Rubikante], [Other Side's Devil_Drachiniazo] and [Other Side's Devil_Ciriato] in my hand!"
"A Fusion Summon that fuses three monsters into one..."
Virgil pinched out a purple card in his hand, emitting a radiant holy white light, and said confidently: "Soul of light that has passed through the dark hell and completed baptism, sings the praises of the dawn with sublimated divinity, wake up, Dante!
Fusion Summon! [Pilgrim of the Other Shore_Dante] (Light/★8/Angel/Fusion/Effect/2800/2500)
"Attack power of 2800, surpassing [Cursed Eye's Familiar_Basilicok]. It seems you think you are qualified to fight me to a draw. Then it's time for me to reveal my trump card and make you accept the cruel reality."
Ling Wei waved his hand and said, "The moment you Fusion Summon a monster, I activate the monster effect of [Cursed Eye King_Zerakell]. While this card has [Cursed Eye of the Moon] equipped, once per turn, you can select 1 card on your opponent's field and destroy it. This effect can also be activated during your opponent's turn."
The yellow vertical pupils on the chest of the King of Cursed Eyes shone brightly, and a dark yellow beam of light shot out, piercing straight at the purple-haired Dante who was wearing an angel robe and holding a wooden staff.
However, Dante remained indifferent. He calmly closed his eyes and prayed silently. The beam of light passed through Dante's body, which was emitting holy light, and gradually disappeared into the background. The effect of the King of Cursed Eyes had no effect on it at all.
“Damn it, why!?”
"After surviving countless tribulations and reaching heaven, Dante has long embraced light, purity, and goodness, no longer shaken by darkness and evil."
Vergil said slowly, "Dante, the Pilgrim of the Other Shore's Effect: This card cannot be targeted by your opponent's effects."
"Is there really nothing I can do about this guy?" Ling Wei ruffled his hair, a thousand thoughts running through his mind:
"Perhaps I can use [Cursed Eyes' Familiar_Basilico] to perform a speed Link Summon and dodge the attack... No, even if I Link Summon a second Cursed Eyes King or another monster, its attack power will still be lower than this Dante, and the outcome will not change at all."
In the end, he could only look up to the sky and sigh: "It seems that I will inevitably end up in a draw with this brat."
"You want to tie with me? I'm afraid you don't have the qualifications." Virgil sneered and showed the last card in his hand: "I activate the Normal Spell Card, [Magic Removal].
This card can select 1 face-up Magic Card on the field and destroy it. I choose to destroy your equipped Magic Card, [Cursed Eye of the Moon].
"you you!"
Ling Wei's Field Magic Card, [Cursed Eye Threshold - City of Illusions -] can share the battle damage between both parties, but this effect will only take effect when there is an Equipment Magic Card, [Cursed Eye of the Moon], on his field.
If the layout on Ling Wei's field is regarded as a closely connected magic circle, then [Cursed Eye of the Moon] is the most core array eye on the field. At this moment, Virgil broke this key array eye, which means that he used one card to instantly destroy two or even three cards of Ling Wei.
"Now, I can't empathize with you." Viji said coldly: "Entering my battle phase, I will use [Pilgrim of the Other Shore_Dante] (ATK 2800) to attack your monster, [Cursed Eye's Familiar_Basilicok] (ATK 2500)"
"No, it's impossible. How could I lose to you Osiris Red rookies?"
(Ling Wei's health 100 → 0)
"Boss, you actually lost?" The two henchmen who were in charge of filming the duel put down their electronic cards as if the sky had fallen. They were unable to accept the fact that they were about to be demoted to Osiris Red.
"What are you two idiots still standing there for!?" Ling Wei roared in frustration, "Delete the video immediately!"
"Everyone, we're wrapping up. Look at the camera and smile."
Ling Wei turned his head blankly and found that Luo Ye was also holding an electronic card to record the video of their duel, and waved to him to keep smiling.
